DP57 Posted September 9, 2020 #1 Posted September 9, 2020 Anybody know of or looking to part with a set of armrests for a 2008 Royal Star Venture please let me know. Need them for the wife's piece of mind.
XV1100SE Posted September 9, 2020 #2 Posted September 9, 2020 Larry ( @Carbon_One) used to make and sell them. You can check with him if he has any left.
RDawson Posted September 9, 2020 #3 Posted September 9, 2020 I designed a set that work different than any I’ve seen, they do flip up for passenger to mount/dismount. @cowpuc has a video of them (surprise right) from Don’s MD last year. I’m not producing any parts right now but will tell you what I did if you’re interested in building some. Basic tools to cut/drill/tap involved.
DP57 Posted September 9, 2020 Author #4 Posted September 9, 2020 Would like to see the video if you can tell me how to get to it. Have the use of a machine shop.
DP57 Posted September 9, 2020 Author #6 Posted September 9, 2020 Got it. Thanks. Might try a little engineering of my own here. Got a picture in my head of what I want. Would lift towards the rider seat vs swinging out for rider mount and dismount.

Would lift towards the rider seat vs swinging out for rider mount and dismount. Those in the video flip and back. The clamps I used on the hand rails are Bimini boat clamps. I did have to remove some of the rubber as it’s molded in an oval shape from Yamaha. I drilled and tapped set screws in the bottom of each one.
Junior Posted March 18, 2023 #8 Posted March 18, 2023 Does anyone make these for sale? Both look like good ideas.
